I just had my first realisation im not pregnant and no Jan 2020 baby just now, on the phone to my nan, who i recently told about fertility issues as i feel like im going crazy. I just said to her todays not a good day because ive found out not happened again this month and she was really nice about it, i then said how i am just anxious and worried about everything breaking and stuff all the time & again she was really sympathetic and, as people do, try and make you see its all in your head. just wanna cry. got off phone took deep breath and teared up.. i havent even cried properly just tearing up. i hate this so much. cycle 14 of good tries and the 18 month mark for ttc starts this coming new cycle.

Ugh it’s so hard isn’t it. So sorry for your loss, it sucks not knowing where you’re at, makes it such a head f*ck. I didn’t realise this could have such an impact on future cycles. I’m with you Hun, let’s hope we get some clarity soon! Xx

Hope everyone’s doing ok. Update from me, got my pelvic ultrasound results back, my uterus is not retroverted like I was told before but it’s very slightly arcuate (heart shaped) and I have a cyst on my cervix which apparently will never go away, doctor didn’t seem very sure but said she didn’t think those things would have any affect. Took a frer last night 10dpo BFN. Think it’s gonna be another unsuccessful month! If those lines I had on the ICs were real then I’d have thought my frer would have a line by now x

I personally wouldnt use ICs not for something so important. Just personal preference. Make sure wen u test its FMU.
Dont worry i also got a BFN today so youre not alone, atleast we know and cant get ready for AF instead of shocked by it. Thats how i try & see it.

I choose to use ICs when it early cause it’s so much cheaper. I know they aren’t great so I don’t get my hopes up and it doesn’t have any effect on me but satisfies my need to pee on a stick. I haven’t tested today, it was last night I got a BFN, I haven’t bothered today as I’m pretty certain AF is coming, had that yellow Cm today that I always get before AF x

Higher than pre O temps and drop when you AF is coming.
I’ve had a drop today too Sophie, only a small one but I’ve got a feeling tomorrow it will dip drastically

I’ve had another bfn on a frer this morning, I’m pretty sure I’m out. Ive decided to not come on here for a few months and delete my groups on Facebook. The whole thing feels like it’s taking over my life and I can’t help but feel it’s not a good way to live!! Im gonna ditch my opks and just use ovusense and focus on eating a bit better. Wishing everyone all the best! Will check back in at some point! X

I’m sorry. I have been quiet on here. Deleted Facebook groups and thinking of staying off here for a while too. I have to say deleting the Facebook groups has massively helped my stress levels. Good luck x

Thanks lolly, I’ve just deleted my Facebook groups too. I really do think it’ll help a lot. Just need to get out of the habit of checking on here, I do it’s all the time without thinking about it! Good luck to you too x

I think im 13dpo not 12 as ff had me at. I overrode the Ovulation detector. I had a big dip then rise it put me at O day after rise. Yes this morning i had yellow cm with bright red blood and temps took a pretty big plummet, so its trying to come on today. Atleast i knew it was coming. Has helped.

I’m totally with you Rainbow, I’m thinking when af finally arrives (due today but still only spotting) I’m gonna take a break from here. It’s our last month of ovulation induction this next month and we will then have to decide if we do that again for another 3 months or move to ivf.
Wishing all the remaining ladies lots of luck though x

Hi sugar sorry to hear you feel like this. If its only your first cycle of successful ovulation
Im spotting today as well
it absolutely sucks and im so sorry you feel like this.. its only your first go with actual ovulation.. do not write yourself off yet. If your not using pre seed already, try it. Try using a menstrual cup or laying on stomach after BD. etc etc. each Ovulation month have a new way to do things. Thats what we are doing. I was giving us 3 last natural tries before we move to private. So now down to 2.

So sorry to everyone who are feeling low. I hope you all find some peace away from the groups and constant reminders.
I was like this last month but have tried to get my life back on the positive track and getting on with things as normal with ttc just as a sideline and not my main focus- but i slip up every now and then.
Just try enjoy life as it is now, book that holiday, have that drink, relax and I hope you all get your bfps very soon x
Take care xx
